Guerrilla International video festival @ Dublin
Nuova tappa a Dublino per L’International Guerrilla Video Festival dal 19 al 20 febbraio 2009.
Il leit motiv sono lo spazio urbano e sociale,con cui la video arte si mescola rafforzandosi. L’accento viene posto sulle problematiche attuali come l’assenza di comunicazione. Artisti locali e internazionali, difatti,partono dai loro video,allargando il punto di vista individuale.Un’idea di festival nuova,che intende creare un dialogo costante partendo dal video,per far incontrare diverse comunità dai quattro punti del mondo che vivono nelle simili condizioni.
L’International Guerrilla Video Festival,concepito dall’Americano Jason Waite,ha come base New York, ed è un Festival perennemente in viaggio senza fissa dimora. La prima tappa a Firenze nel 2006 diede via ad un tour che ebbe come città ospitante Milano nel luglio 2008,e adesso nel 2009 l’imminente Dublino per poi trasferirsi a Shangai.
